A hilarious video from a Hogwarts Legacy player reveals one thing the Harry Potter books and movies didn't address when it comes to the geography of Hogwarts. Movie magic did wonders to bring the halls of Hogwarts to life in the Harry Potter movies - but the game took that magic one step further, giving players their first real opportunity to navigate the walls of the famed wizarding school on their own. But with this great freedom, players are slowly putting together just how much movie magic was used to hide how big Hogwarts really is.
The scene in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince where Harry chases after Draco and Snape (following Dumbledore's death) as the Death Eaters infiltrate the castle is more of a marathon than a quick chase. As pointed out by Reddit user luffyisNOTreal, the path Harry would've needed to take, going all of the way to Hagrid's Hut, requires more than a dozen staircases, at least two bridges, and a jaunt through a courtyard to even get outside the castle.
The 40-second video is sped up, and while Harry may have been a member of the Quidditch team, it's unlikely flying on a broom...
